The Share Option Centre
As part of MM & K’s comprehensive share plan advisory service, The Share Option Centre (“TSOC”) provides a full share plan administration service for your company’s discretionary share plans.
Retaining and motivating key staff is of paramount importance if a company is to succeed in the future. As a result, employee share plans have become an integral part of many companies’ remuneration strategy.
TSOC’s service covers the complete life cycle of your plans, ranging from the grant / award process (including the production of all related documents and employee communication ready for distribution) through ongoing management, to maturities and exercise of options / vesting of awards.
You can opt for the whole package or choose only those aspects of the service you require. TSOC will take care of everything, including:
- share scheme compliance
- HMRC share plan tax returns
- management of scheme maturities + exercises,
including taxable amounts
- dealing with leavers
- all related documentation
- dedicated employee help lines
- customised reports within a quick turnaround
Participants can view their portfolios via our online portal, including details of shares, awards and current market values.
TSOC is experienced at managing the effects on share plan participants of an acquisition or IPO. In addition to dealing with the administrative issues, TSOC can help you with essential employee education and communication.
If you administer your share plan in-house but, in the interests of compliance and best practice, would like an audit of your records and processes, TSOC would be pleased to help.
